    Hi Charlie,
                 Hmm this dialog also doesn't expose all the functionality of
    our feature. The user has to be able to choose the style of
    the displayed heading. Also the type of numbering for the
    headings, whether the levels are threaded, the srtyle of the
    page number and the type of leader for the TAB.

    I'm not a big fan of this one.

    Try again with a well defined way to expose all the functionality. (Use
    cascading dialogs or "advanced" tabs if you must).

    Believe me the use-cases I want for this dialog (Ph.D. theses) needs all
    these features.
